‘Florals, for spring? Groundbreaking.” Miranda Priestly once sarcastically remarked. But yes, groundbreaking they are this season. No longer the preserve of your nan’s tapestry, designers have given flowers a new lease of life, the spring/summer fashion oeuvres boomed with profusing 3D flowers. The modus operandi was collectively light-hearted and romantically enchanting, whisking imaginations as far away as nirvana or creating idyllic fantasies of the big day.

The fashion clock’s forever ticking, and moving forward at a fast pace. We welcome a new trend today, and say goodbye tomorrow. In this fiery heat, it is hard to imagine that in just a few months, we’ll be trading in our sandals for boots, skirts for trousers, and er…crop tops for multiple layers. With the summer sales everywhere as stores clear away the old, in prep for the new, we are enthusiastic about what Autumn/Winter will bring.

Whether it’s stress, bad diet, or the effects of the weather, the skin usually shows the first signs of a problem. Here, we tackle common beauty problems with basic first steps to taking care of your skin, before reaching for products.

1. Pigmentation: Acne presents a lot of challenging problems, not only is it stressful to deal with, but it also leaves stubborn uneven marks on the skin.

Solution: Shorten the time spent in the sun and ensuring you’re using SPF protection.

2. Spots: There’s nothing more frustrating than the appearance of spots; they are difficult to hide and intrusive.

Skin is the biggest organ in the body, and it is the only one visible. If first impressions are made to last, then a healthy looking skin is the ultimate way to make a good one. However, it is easier said than done. Millions of people pay thousands of dollars each year on skin products, a list that keeps on getting bigger as you age. But it is important to make the right investments, for the sake of your hard earned cash, and for the health of your skin.

Off the shoulder, embellished, capped, bare, rounded, squared…we’ve seen them all this season. The fashion capitals’ designers uniformly decide to pay attention to the shoulder by removing or adding more fabric to them – and with each, altering the silhouette completely.

Round cocooning shoulders are popular as we’ve noted; they’ve come in the shapes of dresses, jumpers and coats – making quite a powerful statement. London designer Christopher Kane emphasized them with graffiti print that stops at the elbow whilst Victoria Beckham over at NYFW offered a clean look. The look was a working city woman whose...

The waistline, (alongside shoulders as we’ve seen previously) is having its fashion moment again.

The belted waist creates a smart and feminine silhouette, without necessarily having to cinch. See the Alberta Ferreti show for example, whose opening look was a bow tied belt aided by a peplum for an extra emphasis. The collections this fashion month show us that waist belts come in all shapes and sizes, from thin straps to corset belts; offering more ways than one to style them.

The belt is an accessory that adds a character of sophistication to an outfit; the collections below show you how to highlight...

2012 was a year of change in fashion. Some of the key industry players participated in a game of musical chairs, moving from one house to another. Stefano Pilati departed from (Yves) Saint-Laurent Paris, whilst Balenciaga’s Nicholas Ghesquiere shocked everyone with the sudden departure announcement after a 15-year reign – fuelling speculations about Christopher Kane perhaps taking over the brand. Yet, Kane was only just getting divorced from Versus. What was more interesting was the appointment of New York designer, Alexander Wang taking over Balenciaga. PPR (who own Balenciaga) explained that Wang is what they...
